## Supported Genomes
The dataset includes synteny data for 30+ plant genomes including:
- Barley (*Hordeum vulgare*)
- Wheat (*Triticum aestivum*)
- Rice (*Oryza sativa*)
- Maize (*Zea mays*)
- Arabidopsis (*Arabidopsis thaliana*)
- And 25+ more species
## Usage
This dataset is designed to be used with the [Plant-mSyn web application](https://huggingface.co/spaces/yoshigold/plant-msyn).
To use programmatically:
```python
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
# Download the full dataset
local_path = snapshot_download(
repo_id="yoshigold/plant-msyn-data",
repo_type="dataset"
)
```
## File Formats
### BED Files (`*.bed`)
Tab-separated files with gene positions:
- Column 1: Chromosome
- Column 2: Start position
- Column 3: End position
- Column 4: Gene ID
- Column 5: Score
- Column 6: Strand
### Blocks Files (`*.i1.blocks`)
Tab-separated synteny block definitions linking genes between species.
### Annotation Files (`gene_annotation.tsv`)
